Unwritten policy is still policy. While I know she has tons of discretion and latitude, I sincerely doubt that she unilaterally decided "no hotels." It is coming with input from other City officials (the ones who we elect to transact City business on our behalf with much discretion) and their appointees.

I think if the policy were written down it would read something like "no subsidy for hotels unless they are connected to projects that provide significant additional benefit to the City of Oklahoma City and downtown beyond the simple addition of hotel rooms.
